Inspections
The goal of any State and County fire code is the prevention of fires
and the loss of life. It is the responsibility of the Fire Marshal's Office
to ensure public buildings and other places of assembly comply with these
codes.
Major Initiatives
Our ongoing inspection priorities are those that do not change from year
to year. These priorities include public and private schools, daycare
facilities, licensed educational facilities, group homes, movie theaters,
restaurants, and nightclubs.
Special Initiatives
Special priorities
are identified each year based on a target priority identified either
in or outside of the county. As a result of the Rhode Island Nightclub
fire in February 2003, Chesterfield has identified nightclubs as a priority
for these special inspections. The Fire Marshal's Office has teamed up
with members of the Building Inspections Office to conduct a comprehensive
building inspection for compliance with the fire code and building maintenance
codes.
